1t is universally admitted in England
that the cloture is q failure in the case
of n measure like the Coercion bill,
which is necessarily open to numerous
amendments. The minority are reso-
lutte in the determination to compel
consideration OF as many motions as
possible. and in spite of the sharp APP
plication of whip and spur, it has taken
ten days to put three lines of the bill
through committee, while there vet re-
main 445 lines to be considered. The
most fiagrant abuse of the cloture yet
perpetrated was the action on Wednes-
day night with reference to the motion
of Mr. Peter Mcdonald to shield the
witnesses at preliminary examinations
against the hostile use of their own tes-
timony. In spite of the fact that the
best legal authorities declared that this
amendment was necessary to preserve
one of the Oldest principles of English
law, the %cloturc was enforced. No
wonder that the cries of the House
branded the transaction as .mons-
trous" and a SHAME"

How the German Made Il All Right.

A clothing firm occupying "a promi-
nent corner in Chicago, concluded
some weeks ago that on the 1st of Nav
it would extend its first-floor room bv
leasing the quarters then occupied by
II german saloonkeeper. The clothing
people already occupied the floors
above the saloon on lease, and by a
sort of arrangement with the owner of
the block had q call on the ground
floor whenever they were ready TO pay
the rental demanded. This time hav-
ing arrived, the manager of the cloth
ing store, in order TO avoid misunder-
standing with the German, and posi-
bly, to prevent %ruinOus competition in
bids for the lease, called on the saloon
keeper, and in a friendly way remarked
that he guessed his firm would take
the store room after the lst of May,
and that the dispenser of beer and
pretzels had better be looking out for
new quarters.
''Bnt don't vant to move" pro-
tested the German.
"Well, but you'll have to. You're a
poor man and we are rich, and we
can pay three times as much for this
store room as you. If you'll go out
quietly and make no trouble about il
We'll help you find a new place. If
you stay here at all, you'll nave to pay
a rent that'll make you sick-mind

''Vell, you come in two weeks und

Two weeks later, OF shortly before
the lst of May, the manager called
again. The German was al smiles.

ness man of wide experience, writes in
the Century for May of the training
which the young men of the country
are to-day receiving. He suggests that
to supply deficiencies our great institu-
tons OF learning should embrace in
their curricula a commercial course for
young men intending to devote them
selves to mercantile pursuits. The
ordinary college course does not ade-
quately prepare a youth for a business
career. nor does a yourg man without
special instruction in a large business
house pick up all a merchant of the
present day needs to know. The or
binary business colleges do a useful
work, but as at present organized, they
give q technical not q liberal educa-

safe ON shipboard. Advantage Is taken
of this antipyretic effect of alcohol IN the
treatment of exhausting diseases accom-
panied by high temperature. Alcohol
aids the action of the heart, drives more
blood TO the surface where the heat can
be lost by radiation, and is true food in
such affections. II is actually burned In
the place of the foods that cannot be
digested and taken up, and in this way
preyents loss of substance which would
otherwise be consumed.
In feyers there is increased combus-
ton. otherwise there could he no increase
in the heat produced, and materials for
this unnatural fire must be had. If not
taken in as food, the bodily tissues are
DESTROYED 10 keep up the combustion.
Alcohol is often the only food that can be
absorbed into the blood. Its value under
such circumstances cannot lie overstated.
Alcohol given in disease as food or as
an antipyretic has never been known u

from the injudiciouS employment OF 1t in

Live stock Last Week.

Under. date OF October 2sth Keenan,
x Hancock say:
There is nothing new to report con-
cerning the cattle trade. The market
continues TO drag along in a llstless
way ut the low prices reported last
week. The ups aud downs Of the past
week leave market quotations about
where they were al tue date Of our last
letter
Our market closes dull and depressed
on all grader. All the markets are
full of live cattle and dressed beef.
The only thing that will help us out
next week Is light receipts, and from
the present outlook the first three
days Of next week will be well sup
piled with range cattle from tha
northwest. The south and south west
have commenced their fall rouud-ups
and these cattle will commence to ar
rive next week. 60 there is no posi-.
BILE show for lighter receipts aud much
better prices this season for western
range cattle. While We felt all along
that there would be better feeling
and better prices at the last end OF the
season, We have about given up all
hopes.
Receipts OF sheep for this week about
$1,000, or $500 les than last weeks re-
ceipts. Still We have TO report no bet
ter trade in general, except for few.
Prime lots of native sheep and lambs
were scarce. Consequently they
brought higher prices. Choice wesl-
eTDs are no lower.
Our market presently is overrun
with poor to medium sheep, which are
hard tC sell except al very low prices.
They have to contend with large sup
plies oI Texas sheep that are selling at
present, cheap, and at the same time
they make nice handy carcssses Of
mutton for the city trade. We think
about two or three weeks more will
finish the Texas and western sheep,
when our supplies are sure to run out
aud, a. We said last week, higher
p ces are sure 10 follow.
The eastern trade was very dull for
the last week Tor sheep, SO that il
nearly drove shippers tothe east clean
out OF the market, and when the de.
maud for live Oues Is bad the demand
for carcasses is sure TO follow in the
same way. Everybody seemed to be
full OF sheep from the large supplies OF
last week; but as we had not such
heavy runs this week, We think bay.
ers will be more inclined to take hold
from this Oh, unless big receipts should
follow. We quote the following prices
for the different grades as follows, viz:
Prime native sheep, sv. ITO 10 l35
lbs. sLOO@42j per cwt.; medium do,
95 to lO5, S325@S.60; common, s. to
